Dotz Matrix Installation
When installing the unit, the trussing or area of installation must be
able to hold 10 times the weight without any deformation. When
installing the unit must be secured with a secondary safety attach-
ment, e.g. and appropriate safety cable. Never stand directly below
the unit when mounting, removing, or servicing the unit.
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including calculat-
ing working load limits, installation material being used, and perodic
safety inspection of all installation material and unit. If you lack these
qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself.
These installaiton should be checked by a skilled person once a year.
The Dotz Matrix is fully operational in two different mounting posi-
tions, hanging upside-down from a ceiling or set on a flat level sur-
face. To avoid internal damage to the unit, never mount the unit on
its side as illustrated above. Be sure this fixture is kept at least 0.5m
away from any flammable materials (decoration etc.). Always use and
install the supplied safety cable as a safety measure to prevent acci-
dental damage and/or injury in the event the clamp fails. Never use
the carrying handles for secondary attachment.
Dotz Matrix Power Cord Daisy Chaining
With this feature you can connect the fixtures to one another
using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can be
connected is 5 fixtures maximum. After 5 fixtures you will need to
use a new power outlet. They must be the same fixtures. DO NOT
mix fixtures.

Dotz Matrix Cleaning
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter-
nal optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light
output.
1. Use a soft cloth to wipe down the outside casing.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture
operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).
Listed below are a few common problems the user may encounter,
with solutions.

wired correctly (pin 3 is “hot”; on some other DMX devices
pin 2 may be ‘hot’). Also, check that all cables are connected
to the right connectors; it does matter which way the inputs
and outputs are connected.
Unit does not respond to sound:

Dotz Matrix Troubleshooting
Locate and remove the unit’s power cord. Once the cord has been
removed located the fuse holder located inside the power socket.
Insert a flat-head screw driver into the power socket and gently pry out
the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace with a new one. The
fuse holder has a built-in socket for a spare fuse be sure not to confuse
the spare fuse with active fuse.
